I have not been around for a long time due to a Heart Attack and Several small Strokes (TIA's). I have a upcoming appointment with my Cardiologist and I was reviewing the blood test he had done. For some reason he did a PSA, which had been around 0.02 or 0.03. It is now 0.07 and this seems to be a significant rise. Has anyone had this and is it a indication that the cancer may returning? Because of the time since my operation I don't see the Oncologist but every Six months. Should I call Him?

Was the recent PSA test done by the same lab?PSA is sometimes reported as "below .1" for example: it depends on the institution and their definition of undetectable.A definition of rising PSA is three higher peaks.
